i often do because i often start with my drum programming first. if i'm starting out on my drum machine i'll do that with just headphones on because i don't want to get up turn the speakers on turn my interface on turn my monitors on turn my aurora on turn my lunchbox on etc etc. i'll just load up a kit and make a nice drum pattern and if i like it i'll turn everything on to record it. it's all about the workflow
